Energy – Oil and Gas
Thanks to our resources and expertise we have overcome technical and logistical difficulties to protect oil refineries, power stations and gas pipelines all over the world. These achievements have allowed us to become a reliable partner of the principle national and international general contractors.
Oil refineries in the desert and gas pipelines through mountainous regions require highly technological fire-fighting systems which guarantee prompt functioning in the case of necessity.
FPC also specialises in the protection of electric and nuclear power stations.
The most frequently used fire-fighting systems used for this type of application are:
- Fire and Gas
- Foam systems
- CO2
- Tanks and Pumps
- Sprinkler
- Water Mist
- Argosystem – Inert Systems
- Novec 1230
Off Shore
Besides its economic value, many people live and work on an off-shore platform so, for this reason, the fire-fighting system to be installed must guarantee reliability and rapidity in the case of intervention.
The resources which make up FPC have protected hundreds of oil plants throughout the world by supplying technologically state-of-the-art systems.
The most frequently used fire-fighting systems for this kind of application include:
- Water Mist
- Inert Systems
- Novec 1230
- Foam Systems
- CO2
Besides the above-mentioned fire-fighting systems, FPC has also engineered advanced Fire & Gas systems to rapidly detect and signal dangerous gas leaks.
Marine
This is the sector in which FPC’s resources have accumulated the greatest experience enabling the firm to guarantee the reliability of the systems in a wide range of installation and safety situations.
FPC is one of the most highly qualified firms in the field fire-fighting systems on board all types of sea vessel.
For fire-fighting protection on board passenger ships, such as cruise ships or ferries, the Water Mist fire-fighting system – nebulised water system tested according to NFPA, IMO (International Maritime Organization), UL and FM norms – has become a standard for this type of application in recent years.
Ship engines can be protected by traditional CO2 systems or by the eco-compatible and non-toxic Novec 1230 system.
Other fire-fighting systems used in marine applications include:
- Fire & Gas
- Foam Systems
- Sprinkler
Industrial
Important industrial and public complexes all over the world have been protected by FPC while complying with the local technical norms and in observance of our clients’ insurance and quality standards.
Our experience lies mainly in the automobile, paper-making and pharmaceutical sectors, together with large-scale distribution.
The fire-fighting systems designed for industrial applications may vary according to the type of risk and risk management requirements. The most frequently used systems include:
- Fire & Gas
- Foam Systems
- CO2
- Tanks and Pumps
- Sprinkler
- Water Mist
- Argosystem – Inert Systems
- Novec 1230
